Intel and AMD have a pin count of 50 with the motherboard

According to the pin type of the CPU, you can directly match the pin type of the motherboard by querying the pin type of the motherboard

Intel is now the mainstream).

ADM is 462754.Now mainstream).

For example, motherboard models are defined by the pins of the north bridge.

The CPU is also only 775, which is bald, and the others are all with needles.

No reproduction...

Now the mainstream is 945 with Core series AM3 with AMD Athlon quad-core Phenom quad-core.

(2) There are two main ways to query the slot type (pin) of the CPU:

After entering the **, switch to the "Parameters" page, and you can see that the slot type of FX8350 is AM3+ (938-pin).

2) Method 2: Use the software CPU-Z to directly check the CPU slot type (the CPU is installed on the computer and can work normally).

Just look at what interface the motherboard is, for example, AM3 938-pin AM2+ 941-pin AM2 940-pin Recognize that the motherboard is the interface of AM, but the interface of AM2 AM2+ is to support AM3 upward.

AMD desktop processors have three different interfaces: AM3 (AM3+), FM2+, and AM1, and from 2016 onwards, they will all be unified into the new AM4.

Let's focus on the two interfaces: AM3 and AM4.

AM3: Pin 938-pin (AM3 + 942-pin), support DDR3 memory, AM3 interface processors include Athlon-II series and Phenom II series. Motherboards that support AM3 interface include 780G X, 790FX, 790GX, etc.

AM4: 1331 pins, support DDR4 memory, AM4 interface processors include AMD Ryzen 7 series (such as R7 2700X), AMD Ryzen5 (such as R5 2600), AMD Ryzen 3 (such as R3 2200G) Motherboards that support AM4 interface include low-end A320 series, mainstream B450, B350 series, and high-end X370 series motherboards.

1.Chipset classification.

The most important thing is to look at the chipset, not only to classify the motherboard, but also to clearly see the level division between them, so as to assist us in the selection of the motherboard.

Intel chipset has four main levels,Throw away the early messy name, not to mention,The grades from high to low are X, Z, B, H,like we generally recommend the Z series chipset for playing games,It is the best performance in ordinary consumer-grade motherboards,For example, if you take a recent hot sale Z370 to take a closer look,You will find that it has a lot of expansion interfaces,And it supports overclocking and higher memory frequency,This means that its performance is really good。 If you don't have any luxury in overclocking or extreme performance, the B-series is also a good choice for you, and it is positioned in the mid-range. AMD is relatively much simpler, and there are three series from high to low:

X, B, A, and the mid-range B series can be overclocked, and the A series cannot be overclocked.

2.Look at the interface.

The most typical thing is to see if there are pins on the CPU interface, there are no pins on AMD, the pins of factory A are placed on its own CPU, and there are a bunch of pins on Intel, which can be seen at a glance.

However, it should be noted that AMD's own CPU can basically be universal except for a few, as long as the interface is the same, it can be plugged in. Intel is different, some can do "interoperability", some can't, plugged in, you need to change the CPU motherboard in advance on the Intel official website to check the specific adaptation model.

3.Other visual signs.

Pay attention to the reverse buckle, if there is AMD, the lid buckle is often found on Intel motherboards. No matter how bad it is, just look at the logo, which is generally prompted.

As long as you pay attention to the most basic and intuitive three aspects, you will not be unclear about the motherboard surname "i" or the surname "a"!

It has nothing to do with the motherboard wiring, the CPU socket is not the same at all, the two CPU sockets are different, and the motherboard connection is similar.

The interface can be found in cpu-world: microprocessor news, benchmarks, information and pictures
